Artist/Band: Regina Spektor
Lyrics for Song: A Cannon
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Regina Spektor



A cannon was fired by the light of the moon

I'm waiting, the boat should be here very soon

And I mind less and less all the silly pictures that hang round my room

For now



I write you a letter

I hope you feel better

I hope you forgive the transgressions

I've given you love

And I've given you anger as well

And I meant them both



I always knew it was coming this way

Was coming this way

I always knew a big boat would come and take me away

Take me away



I stood on my bed

Then I slipped in my dress

Then I ran through the halls

Like a ghost

And in case someone heard me

I grabbed up a dagger that I'd never use

Unless



Bare feet on the cobblestones street

Then a beach

Then a splash

Then my ankles

My knees

Then my thighs

And my eyes open-wide

I threw myself right into the sea



And I could see it was coming my way

Was coming my way

I always knew a big boat would come and take me away

Take me away

Take me away



I've woken up once

And I've woken up twice

And I've woken up millions and millions of times

Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water

Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water



I would if I could

But I can't so I don't

My heart breaks too easy

My words get all jumbled

And when I wear lipstick

Then no-one understands me at all



They think I'm saying hello and goodbye

Hello and goodbye

What I'm really saying is (whisperwhisperwhisper)

They think I'm saying hello and goodbye

Hello and goodbye and hello

What I'm really saying is (whisperwhisperwhisper)



I've woken up once

And I've woken twice

And I've woken up millions and millions of times
